Butterfly nails

Lol excuse the boring title! There's some actual effort gone into the nails tough so maybe that makes up for it :p.
I went out for a meal with friends so I thought I'd tie my nails in with my outfit. I've included a shot of the outfit (now that doesn't happen often, there's a reason I'm not a fashion Blogger lol) so you can see if you think I succeeded or not.
The base is nails Inc Covent Garden ballet. Then one coat of tarastalons diamonds on thumb and pinky. One butterfly stamped on ring finger in nails Inc the Thames and two more in Barry m Heather from the silks collection. The stamp is...I dunno, from a Claire's accessories set I think, as are the random stamps on my other two fingers which are also in Barry m Heather.
I'm kinda surprised with how well the stamping came out actually.... asides from the middle finger one being in a weird position, I'm reasonably happy the. I like the glitter too but I'm not sure I chose the right two nails to glitter...I kinda wasn't really sure, when I started, where this was going lol. Finally of I did it again I think I'd probably stamp the Heather butterflies behind the Thames one.... Our at least one of them behind and one on top. I feel like it'd be more balanced then. And I do like the subtle effect of the stamping with Heather.... even if it was really hard to photograph! Lol. X

About Me

Hey im Katie. i work as a carer, looking after people in their own homes and i love it a lot. The rest of the time, i ring bells, help at a guide group, study science with the OU, play with beads,paint my nails, ring more bells, occasionally play darts but more often drink and cheer, blog and generally stay as wildly busy as possible. The wildly busy is a protection from the head-crap that comes with depression and other such fun things....something that im passionate about raising awareness and fighting stigma for.

What's in the lost and found

A bizarre and unordered collection of mush from my brain. The lost and found of Katie's (not always fully functioning mind). If you know what to expect you're a step ahead of me but i expect it'll include: nails (my current obsession and distraction), depression anxiety and mental health awareness, bellringing, links to people more erudite than me, the wonderful world of care for the elderly, girl guiding, self-harm, self-help (and probably some self-mockery also), rants, moans, celebrations........and pretty much anything else i feel the need to share.
